Beaded Bridesmaid Dresses

No look at bridesmaid trends for 2015 would be complete without a little sparkle! While sequined gowns started to capture the limelight in 2014, beaded and sequined gowns will still be showing up in wedding parties in a big way, and are now available in a range of pastel and neutral colors. Here’s one way to style the beaded bridesmaid dress with sophisticated mixed metallics.

The glam beading of the Art Deco trend of a few years back has staying power! Beaded and sequined dresses seem to be continuing to be popular choice for spring and summer wedding parties and translated into modern new styles. Many bridemaids will be wearing sparkles, be it through a mismatched look, head-to-toe sequins or beautiful beading such as this.

Adrianna Papell’s gowns are the perfect choice for this look and they have expanded the collection into a range of colors like blush, taupe, blue, gray and lavender. These are a great choice for a special gown for a Maid-of-Honor, or to add a little embellished to your entire bridal party. I love these gowns in particular because they come in such a range of shades, silhouettes, and in petite and plus sizes, You can also find vintage-looking beaded dresses from ModCloth and ASOS has a great selection too! Accent the look with a mix of gold, pave, and silver sparkle, and choose foil-pressed invites like these to show your guests that your wedding is planning to shine!
